Funny how when someone brings this up for a streaming service it’s all “the ads are intrusive”, “I don’t want to pay this company”. Etc. But when it’s discord all the sudden “they gotta pay for bandwidth”.
Nope. They have a free model that is ads supported and a paid model that is not and doesn’t have ads. That’s my point. If the nitro ad was just a banner at the bottom of the app that would be one thing. But instead it shows up randomly as a notification like it’s a message. That’s garbage.
Bandwidth isn’t free, they gotta make money somehow

Because you are still paying the streaming service, and then they serve you ads.
